        Then maybe the configuration is global (for RetroArch). Can you post the following files' contents on pastebin.com and link it:

        • \\retropie\configs\all\retroarch.cfg
        • \\retropie\configs\nes\retroarch.cfg

            @puppetj The conf files are ok - I don't see any remapping or controller index switching.

                    He means mitu's post above:

                    @puppetj In this case, check the controller configuration file - it should be in \\retropie\configs\all\retroarch-joypads, named probably Logitech Logitech Cordless RumblePad 2.cfg. Does it have a hotkey defined ? You can post its contents here in the topic.

                      @clyde i dont know if this is a hint of the issue, but as the other person said, about the usb ports having order and controller 1 needs to be in usb port 0 and controller 2 needs to be in usb port 1, i had controller 1 in usb port 0 and controller 2 in usb 2 and they worked fine.

                            @puppetj said in basic 2 player support not working correctly:

                            @clyde i dont know if this is a hint of the issue, but as the other person said, about the usb ports having order and controller 1 needs to be in usb port 0 and controller 2 needs to be in usb port 1, i had controller 1 in usb port 0 and controller 2 in usb 2 and they worked fine.

                            So are they working fine? Have you tried to reconfigure the controllers?

                              @puppetj one of these has bindings for hotkeys, etc, and one doesn’t. so i would presume that when one of your controllers is plugged in to p1 it works, and when the other works, it doesn’t? in that case you can reset the controllers and rebind via retropie-setup :

                              Choose Manage Packages.
                              Choose Manage Core Packages.
                              Choose emulationstation (Installed)
                              Choose Configurations / Options (it may also be named Configurations Tools)
                              Choose the option to Clear/Reset Emulation Station input configuration.
                              Choose Yes to proceed to clear the controller settings.
